KEY TERMS Strategy Screen: Establishes criteria for ongoing decision- making inside and outside of the strategic planning process. Strategic Vision: Aligns with the Strategy Screen and shows the specific future state we want to build over the next 5 years. Strategic Initiatives: Prioritizes actions needed to achieve vision. Developed through an analysis of current state. For each initiative we will have clear success metrics and accountability.

EQUITY LENS We are committed to equitable representation in collaborative design and to using equity as a strategic filter. We believe it is fully aligned with our organizational mission to state that if we design for the margins, all will benefit. We envision a strategic planning process that centers our priorities on what will create the best outcomes for those on the margins.
